In a world where monsters and ne'er-do-wells wreak havoc within the confines of the night, a city known as Wistholm was renowned as one of the safest places to live. In the town there is a sanctuary, upheld by the royal family for many generations, which envelopes the place in a barrier.

But lately, townsfolk have noticed people disappearing. Not leaving, not dead, but straight up disappearing into the night- like they were never there to begin with.

The king has begun to seek out brave travellers, recruiting 'heroes' to protect them. Granted, anyone can take that title if appointed by him, and is greatly rewarded for their duty... So many, no matter their background, have stepped up to the task.
